Obama, Binders, and a failure of Leadership

I won’t go into the whole “Binder” silliness which the Left is pushing, since it is just that: silliness. Ed over at HotAir put it into context, giving credit to Mark Halperin for “being one of the very few journalists that spoke out about Barack Obama’s lack of a second-term agenda or much substance at all after the debate on Tuesday night.”

We have exploding debt, ambassadors being murdered, no actual budgets having been passed in years, ‘Taxmageddon’ on the horizon, record unemployment for his entire 1st term, …and all Obama can do is make juvenile “Binder” jokes?

If it wasn’t so tragic, it’d be comical.

News flash to the President: what we really need to be concerned with is THIS (from Breitbart.com):

Weekly applications for U.S. unemployment benefitsjumped 46,000 last week to a seasonally adjusted 388,000, the highest in four months.

What else is there?

Agreed, Benghazi is horrific and we need something other than dissembling and semantics from President “Al Qaeda is on the run” Obama. We have a multitude of items to fix, both foreign and domestic, but if our folks don’t have jobs, …real jobs, …we simply can’t fix anything else.

So, Mr. President, are you going to continue to keep throwing mindless distraction upon distraction in front of the American people, or are you going to finally, once and for all, hold yourself to the standard you set four years ago?

“You know, a year from now, I think people are going to see that we’re starting to make some progress but there is still going to be some pain out there. If I don’t have this done in three years, then there’s going to be a one-term proposition.”

Yeah, …I think we all know the answer to that question.

Since President Binder wants this to be the conversation of the day, okay, …I’ll play along:

You almost want to ignore this one, because it is soooo…. petty. It just goes to show how mean, childish, and desperately cunning they are (while attempting to dodge the real issues). When will the stupidity end? On inauguration day, I hope.

I have to add, if you’re the type of person who gets swayed by this silly binder-bunk, please, stop and ask yourself: what kind of intelligence are they trying to appeal to? If that’s your intelligence, then ask yourself another question: am I really that lame that I’m not even insulted by this?

But turn about’s fair play. I LIKE the empty binder, by the way! Ironically, this one actually has content.

You almost could have figured the left would run with the binder issue, their fake war on women. In the end they are trying to appeal to those who are swayed by 30 second ads, talking points and emotion. Why do you think they use the race card, war on women and on down the line? They know their base well and substance isn’t relevant.

1. Soccer moms filling up the minivan at $4+ per gallon.
2. Increased cost of the family’s grocery’s.
3. Median family income DOWN forcing many stay-at-home moms to look for some level of employment outside the home.
4. No level of employment opps outside the home…

No, you can only be against any official “aggrieved group” if you don’t have a “D” after your name.
But if you are a Conservative/Republican? Oh, no, then you want to put women in the kitchen, blacks back in chains, and steal everyone’s money.
